Answer: A. To make education inclusive for everyone, not just for middle class and elite Americans

Step-by-step explanation:

Compulsory education has to do with children being mandated to go to government-sponsored school for a particular period of time.

Education is a right and everyone in the society should have the privilege of enjoying one no matter the social class. Therefore, the correct option will be "to make education inclusive for everyone, not just for middle class and elite Americans".
